Getaway Thursday Wrap-Up

Your Blogmeister’s Hotel Room

After lunch today, I’m headed home for what will be my only break from the salt mines this month, the three days between Good Friday and Easter.  Which I intend to spend most of either sleeping or with family.

LOCAL AND REGIONAL

*  Good, let it remain transitional.  For if it goes back to being unaccredited, SHTF.

*  Feature, not bug.

And notice that Hank Aaron is once again complaining about all the nasty letters he is supposedly getting.

*  “Early childhood education.”  Now there’s a new idea.

You know, you read this, and if you wouldn’t know any better, you’d think he has a problem with black parents.

*  For the second time in five months, SLPD is going to play whack-a-mole in Tower Grove South.

Does this mean the first time didn’t work?  Does this also mean that whack-a-mole really doesn’t do any good?

NATIONAL

*  Celebrate.

*  Sounds familiar to me.

*  What, no complaints about the outsized influence of billionaires in politics?

*  Some people might not consider that a bad thing if it happens.

*  “But we do background checks.”  Sure, you must have been convicted of rape in order to be hired.  “It could happen to anyone anywhere.”  Anywhere you’re close to the ook.

INTERNATIONAL

*  Perfect segue.  Not that I have any way of knowing for sure, as the French are fanatically opposed to collecting racial stats.  But this sounds so quintessentially ook.

MISC STUFF

*  Yeah, sure, a real Swiss Mister.

*  And let’s send you to your long Easter weekend with this.  LGBTQMIAPDLOLPLPLTH have really outdone themselves this time.

I dunno, it seems to me that we’re in a time period that’s a cross between the hippie era and the Weimar Republic.
